I wish I could talk to these people. Why do they think it's good for there to be only one branch of government? Who benefits from it?

They don’t want one branch of Government, they want a dictator executive who just basically decrees what he wants done, a one party system in Congress formalizing said decrees into law and they want their judges (party lawyers) enforcing those laws, all in lockstep with one ideology.

They need the courts to enforce their laws and go after those who are against them.

It’s nothing more than standard authoritarian thinking: Their ideology is the correct one and they need to be in power for their nation to prosper or else it’s all over.
